"Today bring to Me
the Souls of those who have separated themselves from My Church and immerse
them in the ocean of My mercy. During My bitter Passion they tore at My Body
and Heart, that is My Church. As they return to unity with the Church My wounds
heal and in this way they alleviate My Passion."
Most Merciful Jesus, Goodness Itself, You do not refuse light to those who seek
it of You. Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of
those who have separated themselves from Your Church. Draw them by Your light
into the unity of the Church, and do not let them escape from the abode of Your
Most Compassionate Heart; but bring it about that they, too, come to glorify
the generosity of Your mercy.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the
souls of those who have separated themselves from Your Son's Church, who have
squandered Your blessings and misused Your graces obstinately persisting in
their errors. Do not look upon their errors, but upon the love of Your Own Son
and upon His bitter Passion, which He underwent for their sake, since they,
too, are enclosed in His Most Compassionate Heart. Bring it about that they
also may glorify Your great mercy for endless ages. Amen.

In The Heart of My Home

I'm Elizabeth. I'm a happy wife and the mother of nine children. I grab grace with both hands and write to encourage myself and others to seize and nurture the joy of every day. I blog here with my daughter, Mary Beth, a wholehearted young lady on the brink of adulthood.
